Displaying cosmetic threads in an isometric view on a drawing?
Does anyone know how to do this?

I know when it's in one of the standard 6 views (front, top, etc..) the thread diameter shows up as a dotted line, but when I pop in an isometric view of my parts, the outside threads I created with the hole wizard, or just as a cosmetic thread, doesn't show as something that looks like a thread, but as a smooth feature.

Is there a way to turn that on???

I know in the models we just stick on a texture of a thread, but it doesn't carry over to the drawing for some reason???

HELP!! I don't want to put drawings to the production floor and have them miss the thread callout in the standard views, and not see the thread on the isometric view, and make a smooth chamfered feature.

That would be bad. Very bad. lol
